Prosody is not the only project to grow consistently and steady: http://www.ohloh.net/p/compare?project_0=ejabberd&project_1=Prosody&project_2=Tigase+Jabber/XMPP+Server&submit=Go There's also Vysper, and maybe do not bury too fast XCP (or its legacy).
I've slowed down the XMPP Roundup publication pace, but there's plenty a new and updated projects, among which there is not only servers, but also clients, services, and many other innovative uses. To be honest, I just can't follow the news... XMPP is alive and kicking.
